Alpine Tree Heath

Don't pine for an Alpine Tree Heath, treat yourself and plant one!

The Alpine Tree Heather, or Erica arborea var. alpine, is a bushy evergreen shrub that becomes decked with a plethora of small white flowers during the months of spring. These blooms are also delightfully fragrant, so be sure to plant in a location where you can take full advantage of this. It’s an easy plant to grow and requires little maintenance. Fully hardy, you can plant pretty much anywhere, as long as it gets a lot of sunlight, and it will thrive. A great choice for ground cover, banks and slopes and will also happily live and grow in coastal regions.
